un-Muted Mumblings of a Catholic father about NFP, politics, liturgy, Catholicism and whatever comes to my mind.
My main source for writing is Mass, the scripture readings and desire for authentic liturgy.

That they defeat this bill. I am for security, but governments always want to take freedoms to "guarantee security." That isn't a good trade off. There are many securities I can provide for my family if I have the freedom to do so. The government shouldn't intrude on those freedoms in the name of security.

Glad we have a decent senator in Larry Craig. "Folks, when we're dealing with civil liberties, you don't compromise them,"

Again, I support our military and the federal government's duty to protect us from terrorism. But if they don't seem interested in protecting our border, I question their commitment to the fight.
